Create, connect, and inspire
We partnered with Chicago-based illustrator and designer Cody Hudson to create an imaginative vision of the changing world of retail. Cody’s shapes and colors mirror the way various elements of a retail center — from tenants and shoppers to community events and experiences — work together to create one united and meaningful space.

We partnered with Matthew Hoffman to bring the You Are Beautiful experience to eight Brookfield Properties shopping destinations across the country. Coinciding with Mental Health Awareness Month, the installation consists of two 10-foot-high by 13-foot-wide wood structures offering affirming messages like “You Are Worthy,” “You Are Inspiring,” “You Are Essential,” and “You Are Loved.” While Hoffman’s inspirational art speaks to the individual, it is ultimately meant to foster a sense of community — a value that is central to Brookfield Properties’ retail business. More than just places to shop, our marketplaces are community destinations that bring family and friends together to share experiences.

At Brookfield Properties, we believe in the positive impact art has on the people and spaces it reaches. That’s why we launched Creator Lab, a program that gives artists a platform to display their talents by turning ordinary spaces into colorful canvases, all while connecting with – and inspiring – new audiences.
Creator Lab showcases a variety of creatives, including muralists, photographers, and new media artists. Each piece revolutionizes space, connects communities, and tells a story that redefines what it means to visit a shopping center.

Prismatica
Prismatica is a kaleidoscopic art experience that consists of 25 pivoting rainbow prisms that stand at more than 6 feet tall. The installation is created by RAW Design, a Toronto-based architectural firm which put together a team of 30 architects and designers from several fields like applied science, technology, art, and architecture to bring Prismatica to life. Touring the United States at 6 properties in 2022, guests are able to wander and manipulate the prisms to enjoy an infinite interplay of light and reflections or simply pose for the perfect photo op.
